About the Book

TCP/IP Network Administration, 2nd Edition, is a complete guide to setting up and running a TCP/IP network for administrators of networks of systems or users of home systems that access the Internet. It starts with the fundamentals: what the protocols do and how they work, how addresses and routing are used to move data through the network, and how to set up your network connection. Beyond basic setup, this new second edition discusses advanced routing protocols (RIPv2, OSPF, and BGP) and the gated software package that implements them. It also provides a tutorial on how to configure important network services, including PPP, SLIP, sendmail, Domain Name Service (DNS), BOOTP and DHCP configuration servers, and some simple setups for NIS and NFS. There are also chapters on troubleshooting and security. In addition, this book is a command and syntax reference for several important packages, including pppd, dip, gated, named, dhcpd, and sendmail. Contents include: Overview of TCP/IP Delivering the Data Network Services Getting Started Basic Configuration Configuring the Interface Configuring Routing Configuring DNS Name Service Configuring Network Servers sendmail Troubleshooting TCP/IP Network Security Internet Information Resources Appendixes include: dip, pppd and chat reference; a gated reference; a named reference; a dhcpd reference; and a sendmail reference Covers Linux, BSD, and System V TCP/IP implementations.

About the Author :
Craig Hunt has worked with computer systems for the last 25 years. He spent the first few years after receiving his B.A. from American University running an outdoor camp for inner-city kids, but the call of the computer was stronger than the call of the wild. Craig went to work for the federal government as a programmer and then as a systems programmer. He left the government to work for Honeywell on the WWMCCS network in the days before TCP/IP, back when the network used NCP. After Honeywell, Craig went to work for the National Institute of Standards and Technology. He's still there today and currently leads the Advanced Network Technologies Division. Craig is a member of the Federal Networking Council, the Large Scale Network Working Group, and the Next Generation Internet Implementation Team. He taught a course on TCP/IP network administration at Montgomery College in the 1980s and currently teaches a tutorial on the subject at Networld+Interop. In addition to TCP/IP Network Administration, he wrote Networking Personal Computers with TCP/IP and Appendix C of Building Internet Firewalls. He is currently working on a version of TCP/IP Network Administration for Windows NT.

Review :
'Subtitled Help for Unix System Administrators, this is the essential reference. The first edition was a classic of clarity and was devoid of any extraneous detail. The second edition follows that tradition... Everyone charged with administering a Unix system needs a reference guide. This one puts the facts at your fingertips in a concise, yet readable style with little or no fluff.' IT Training, December 1999/January 2000
